ClojureScript for Skeptics

Many people are quick to dismiss ClojureScript as a web development language. "It has some neat ideas", they might say, "but it's easier to just use JavaScript for all that". Or perhaps "it's fine for startups, but you'll never build a real team around it". This talk will discuss the many reasons why ClojureScript is in fact a very pragmatic language to consider for web development. It will discuss recent improvements, some of the not-so-obvious benefits, and use cases where ClojureScript shines.
